My head is going to explode!

This was actually typed last Thursday LOL, I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to post it!! :op


Or, I wish it would anyway. Work's been so busy I can barely keep up, and tomorrow a trainer is coming from out of state to spend the day training us and setting up ProLaw. Since I'm the "manager," I have to know everything about it, get all the information entered (all our clients, cases, experts, treating docs, attorneys, etc etc etc etc to oblivion). I'll be spending the entire weekend here, at the office, taking care of all of this. I think the attorneys I work with (3 in all) will be popping in at various times, but I think I'll be doing the brunt of the work. Which, in a way, is good, because I'm worried about everyone kind of doing it "their own way" and things getting all disorderly, and I don't like disorder :op One of the attorneys is having a big party at his house on Saturday night, so once I'm done I can head over for a drink, or 5. I'm also pulling double dog-sitting duty on Saturday. I'm still watching Cinder, the chocolate lab, and staying as his "mom & dad's" house, but on Saturday I'll leave him home (he stays home all day alone, so he's used to it) and go pick up another dog, the Mochster (a bichon I absolutely adore), and bring him to the office with me while I work. Pretty busy day!!!

I had 2 tickets for Mariners/Orioles games this weekened in Seattle, but obviously I'm not gonna be able to go. I was able to sell both of em on Ebay, although at less than half the price I paid. Oh well, better something than nothing, I guess. They were good seats, I'd hate them to have to go to waste.

On Sunday after I work again, I have to run back to Cinder's house, pack up all my stuff that I've had there over the week, go home and start packing to move that coming Friday.

I haven't gone to the gym at all this week, which is rare for me - I've been pretty tired this week and have had a HUGE headache (comes with the 'monthly' barrell of laughs they call menstruation), and with work being so busy I've decided to just take the week off and concentrate on work. I've been taking Cinder for 3 20-minute walks a day, so at least I'm getting some exercise. I've been eating like a pig though - I am stuffing food in my mouth at a rate that would shock you, seriously.

Ok it's now Monday. The trainer came on Friday, and we get to talkin and turns out she's from PHILLY!! Of course we hit it off instantly and it was a very productive, albeit long ass day. My head was about to explode from all this new information.

Saturday I came into work to get started converting all of our computer files to the new system. It took a lot longer than I thought, and by 2:30 I realized that I'd have to work 24/7 for an entire week, just on this, to even begin to get it all done. So, I left to get ready for a party - one of the attorneys was having a party at his place, so I went home, got changed, walked the dog and drove over. I figured I'd just stay a couple hours, come home and hang out with the dog and watch Big Brother (I'm soooo hooked on that show). Well I ended up leaving at midnight after about 4 glasses of wine (or that's at least when I stopped counting). The attorney is a huge wine guy so there was just bottle after bottle after bottle. It was fun, everyone from work was there so we all hung out and had a good time.

I felt like COMPLETE SHIT the next morning when I woke up. I know I didn't drink THAT much, what the hell was in that stuff??!! I kept getting "Leviathan" flashbacks, anyone remember that movie? I was waiting for an alien thing to come pushing out of my chest. Felt like something was going to be coming up, in any sense lol. But, the dog's owners got home, so I went home, slept for an hour, and felt a lot better after that. I kept finding myself walking down to the end of the building to peek through the windows at my apartment-to-be - I can't wait!! I move this Friday - forever it seemed like it was years away, and now all of a sudden it's, well, in 4 days! I'm so psyched it's not even funny. I will miss my roommates though, but shit I'm only about 50 feet away.

I'm supposed to meet up with Boo (and someone else, in my brain fried state I can't even remember who, LOL) today for lunch, should be cool!!!
